Adnan Akmal with his Puma

[straightdrive1]

Adnan Akmal is really into Puma softs...

He wears their wk Gloves,Pads and Shoes even without covering the Puma logo!

 

[Cover Drive]

Methinks he is big fan of Puma hence he buys/gets them. He has been using Puma keeping pads for a while, I believe since he made his debut.

 

[SempreSami]

He was wearing Aeros in his first Test iirc.

Sorry yes he was;

Look at his keeping pads back in 2004!

Can anyone find out if he got a contract with Puma? I think Pakistani players should get endorsement deals from english companies. It would be beneficial for them as players and product range as well.

I don't think he is sponsored by Puma but I think he would actually love to be sponsored by them.

 

[angrypathan]

I am surprised as to why a player of Younis Khan's calibre is not sponsored by a worldwide recognised cricket equipment manufacturer. He is often see with a bat with no stickers, and currently is sponsored by AJ sports.

 

[straightdrive1]

Younus Khan was with CA but why did he stop endorsing them?
Did CA end his contract or he did?

I don't know both Younus and Misbah ended there contract with CA all of sudden.

I know cuzzo but it would be good to see Pakistani players getting endorsement deals from European companies. It would make their market really big and they would benefit from them a lot.

See this;

 

[angrypathan]

I think Umar and Kamran Akmal are the only Pakistani Players sponsored by European brands, with both of them using Gunn & Moore equipment

I don't know if it works this way but I think Adnan Akmal is sponsored by Puma for wicketkeeping, I think.

Because if he wasn't then wouldn't he be covering the logos with his bat sponsor stickers?

It will be a bit weird don't you think..
I think he is doing it intentionally so that his current sponsor sues him and Puma will sponsor him..(Since he uses Puma stuffs)

It is certainly wired but then he has been using Puma wicket keeping gear for a while, in past when he used Puma keeping gear he always covered the logo with his sponsor such as;

It's unlikely that Adnan is sponsored by Puma, and if by any chance he is then it isn't just for keeping because his batting pads are also Puma's.

 

[straightdrive1]

I think whoever is sponsored by MIDS don't like their softs,Example:Hafeez,T.Umar,A.Akmal..
They all wear softs of different brands...

 

[straightdrive1]

These Puma gear looks great..
Hopefully would see Adan Akmal using these...

 

[Cover Drive]

He probably bought all of that Calibre range in sales so for this we will have to wait next year lool

 

[Knightrider]

Puma would be happy to sponsor any International player if Adnan Akmal contacts them abt sponsorship.

Not really related to the thread but is it only but the pads keeper is wearing in this picture seem to be extremely small;

 

[straightdrive1]

^Is that Junior Size or the design is like that?

 

[Cover Drive]

Haha I don't know if they are junior size but they are extremely small.

Probably boy size

 

[SempreSami]

Looks like he's removed the hinged top part of the pads.

 

[straightdrive1]

^Maybe he has lost them...

 

[Cover Drive]

I'm sure he could have gotten pads off McCullum :adnan

 

[straightdrive1]

^McCullum's selfish I guess....

 

[Cover Drive]

LOL no actually Adnan Akmal got Puma equipments off him when Pakistan toured New Zealand

 

[straightdrive1]

Maybe Thats Why McCullum had to give up keeping...

 

[six_and_out]

he has ripped/cut the top hat off. wierd

 

[shahrukh619]

Was wearing puma equipment again today

 

[zaid135]

umar akmal uses gm and shoaib malik used woodworm in the wc.

 

[zaid135]

kamran akmal's contract ended or did he end it?

 

[straightdrive1]

kamran akmal's contract ended or did he end it?

Maybe his team(Sylhet Royals-BPL) is sponsored by some other brand that's why his contact might have ended...

Not sure though...


Many others also have blank bats,gloves etc...

I don't know the full reason hopefully the pros will give the correct answer...

 

[Anwar_194]

He got these pads for free from
McCullum back in NZ..

Anyone remember how commentators were making fun of him asking the gears from McCullum?

That was old gear the one he is using currently is latest gear.

Kamran Akmal's contract with GM came to end as he doesn't play any international cricket anymore.

yep, if i remember correctly kamran told him to go ask brendon for the softs, and well brendon couldnt really say no, so he gave him some.

in return adnan gave brendon a bat, dont think hes ever used it tho, lols.
